it did not find any. So i went and used heal and saved the repaired model just in case. When I went to upload
the repaired version it still fails the upload.

I'm so confused, can someone help me on what the problem might be...the model is just a mask that meets the requirements.

not contain the unit used). You could also try running your model through netfabb cloud service to see if that makes any changes
that you overlooked in netfabb basic. Finally, there have been a few reports in the past few days that shapeways sent a failure
email although the model was uploaded successfully, so check your models page to make sure it is not already sitting there.]]> mkroeker 2013-01-26T12:23:10-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=60840&th=12564#msg_60840
Oops, It's a two sided mask. The dimensions in netfabb shows length at 0.76mm and height at 0.86mm which doesn't match my 3ds max units. I exported from max to netfabb and from netfabb to shapeways as .Obj

I haven't tried the cloud service you speak of]]> Symphony 2013-01-26T13:11:00-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=60841&th=12564#msg_60841 mkroeker 2013-01-26T13:39:47-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=60842&th=12564#msg_60842 Symphony 2013-01-26T13:59:38-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=60846&th=12564#msg_60846
Thanks Again,]]> Symphony 2013-01-26T17:23:31-00:00 http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=60848&th=12564#msg_60848 Now if you export it as a dae, which SW does recognize those unit measurement settings ,you have to set no unit at upload, it is printed dimensions you model it, mm,cm,inch.
The values of .76 and .86 you got in NF was correct, NF justs adds mm. if uploaded in Meter should work out at at mm 760 x 860 or cm 7.6 x 8.6. Obj file behaves like a stl by the way for uploading to SW.
Good news, if you upload a model for color printing, all you have to do is export the vmrl, pack with the texture, chose METER again at upload.
